( part. adorsus, Gell. 9, 2, 10; see the passage at the end of this art.; the second and third pers. of the pres. ind., acc. to the fourth conj.: adorīris, adorītur; forms analogous to orĕris, orĭtur, of the simple verb occur in Lucr. 3, 513; Lucil. ap. Prisc. p. 880 P.), to rise up for the purpose of going to some one or something, or of undertaking something great, difficult, or hazardous (clandestinely, artfully, when a hostile approach is spoken of; while aggredi indicates a direct, open attack from a distance: aggredimur de longinquo; adorimur ex insidiis et ex proximo; nam adoriri est quasi ad aliquem oriri, i. e. exsurgere, Don. ad Ter. Ad. 3, 3, 50; cf. the same ad Heaut. 4, 5, 9).

In gen., to approach a person in order to address him, to ask something of him, to accost, etc. (cf. accedo, adeo):

cesso hunc adoriri? (quasi de improviso alloqui, Don.),

Ter. Heaut. 4, 5, 9:

si ab eo nil fiet, tum hunc adorior hospitem,

id. Phorm. 4, 2, 15.—

Gell. 9, 2, 10.

ăd-ōro, āvi, ātum, 1, v. a.

In the earliest per., to speak to or accost one, to address; hence, also, to treat of or negotiate a matter with one:

adorare veteribus est alloqui,

Serv. ad Verg. A. 10, 677:

immo cum gemitu populum sic adorat,

App. Met. 2, p. 127; 3, p. 130: adorare apud antiquos significabat agere: unde et legati oratores dicuntur, quia mandata populi agunt, Paul. ex Fest. p. 19 Müll.; cf. oro and orator.— Hence, also, in judicial lang., to bring an accusation, to accuse; so in the Fragm. of the XII. Tab. lex viii.: SEI (Si) ADORAT FVRTO QVOD NEC MANIFESTVM ERIT, Fest. S. V. NEC, p. 162 Müll.—

id. ib. 3, 437:

Ov. Tr. 1, 3, 41:

id. H. 10, 141.—With the thing asked for in the acc. (like rogo, peto, postulo):

Liv. 7, 40; Juv. 3, 300:

adorati di, ut bene ac feliciter eveniret,

Liv. 21, 17:

Hanc ego, non ut me defendere temptet, adoro,

Ov. P. 2, 2, 55.—With the subj. without ut, poet.:

maneat sic semper adoro,

I pray, Prop. 1, 4, 27.—

Hence,

Dropping the idea of asking, entreating, to reverence, honor, adore, worship the gods or objects of nature regarded as gods; more emphatic than venerari, and denoting the highest degree of reverence (Gr. proskunein); the habitus adorantium was to put the right hand to the mouth and turn about the entire body to the right (dextratio, q. v.); cf. Plin. 28, 2, 5, § 25; Liv. 5, 21; App. M. 4, 28. —Constr. with acc., dat., with prepp. or absol.

With acc.:

nec adorabis deo alieno,

id. Ital. Ps. 80, 10 Mai (deum alienum, Vulg.):

qui adorant sculptibus,

ib. ib. 96, 7 Mai (sculptilia, Vulg.).—

The notion of religious regard being dropped, to reverence, admire, esteem highly:

Ennium sicut sacros vetustate lucos adoremus,

Quint. 10, 1, 88:

nec tu divinam Aeneida tenta, Sed longe sequere et vestigia semper adora,

Stat. Th. 12, 816.—

Under the emperors the Oriental custom being introduced of worshipping the Cæsars with divine ceremony, to worship, to reverence:

C. Caesarem adorari ut deum constituit, cum reversus ex Syria, non aliter adire ausus esset quam capite velato circumvertensque se, deinde procumbens,

Suet. Vit. 2; App. M. 4, 28; Min. Fel. 2, 5:

non salutari, sed adorari se jubet (Alexander),

Just. 12, 7:

adorare Caesarum imagines,

Suet. Calig. 14: coronam a judicibus ad se delatam adoravit, did obeisance before, id. Ner. 12:

adorare purpuram principis,

i. e. touched his purple robe and brought it to the mouth in reverence, Amm. 21, 9.—Of adulation to the rabble, to pay court to:

nec deerat Otho protendens manus, adorare volgum,

Tac. H. 1, 36.

; for in Arch. 11, 28, where adoravi was given by Mai in Fragm. p. 124, Halm reads adhortatus sum, and B. and K. adornavi.
